Wat begint als een onschuldig motorritje voor Rose en haar vriend Hart, eindigt in een angstaanjagend en verschrikkelijk ongeluk. In kritieke toestand en met vele brandwonden wordt Rose met spoed geopereerd in de Keloid Clinic of Cosmetic Surgery. Dr. Dan Keloid, het hoofd van deze kliniek, gebruikt gedurfde en experimentele technieken om Rose te redden. Ondanks dat de operatie toch geslaagd is, blijft Rose in een diepe coma. Tijdens haar herstel reageert haar lichaam op een vreselijke manier. Rose wordt wakker uit haar coma met een ongelofelijke drang naar bloed.

    David Cronenberg's Rabid? Well he shouldn't have touched that bat
  • Magnus Parde10 augustus 2025
    Rabid is another jewel from my childhood—one I saw in a movie theater, and it left me with countless sleepless nights afterward. That kind of lingering fear? You don’t forget it. It’s the mark of horror done right. You can throw all the makeup and special effects in the world at a horror film, but if you miss the atmosphere, you’ve lost the soul of it. Rabid doesn’t just get it right—it balances everything perfectly. The dread is palpable, the tension relentless, and even the subtle hints of black comedy are woven in with finesse. Marilyn Chambers is a revelation. She takes her experience from adult films and channels it into something entirely different—her performance is magnetic, unsettling, and strangely sympathetic. She doesn’t just act; she transforms. Even by today’s standards, Rabid remains creepy, scary, and—yes—repulsive in the best possible way. It’s a film that gets under your skin and stays there. Cronenberg’s vision is disturbing, intelligent, and unforgettable.

    “Please hold me. I’m dying of the cold.” - Rose. Cronenberg at his best. I love his early work. This was a great follow-up to Shivers, his directorial feature debut. 🎯 🧟‍♂️
